Public bug reported: In Oxide's video device enumeration code using libhybris,
http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~oxide- developers/oxide/oxide.trunk/view/head:/shared/browser/media/oxide_video_capture_device_factory_linux.cc#L46 the device facing position is "encoded" as a string and passed down to the content layer when creating the VCD name: http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~oxide- developers/oxide/oxide.trunk/view/head:/shared/browser/media/oxide_video_capture_device_factory_linux.cc#L82 This name is then used when creating the MEdiaStreamDevice that serves as a backend for the capture device https://git.launchpad.net/~oxide- developers/oxide/+git/chromium/tree/content/browser/renderer_host/media/video_capture_manager.cc#n842 This then creates a MEdiaStreamDevice based on that positional name https://git.launchpad.net/~oxide- developers/oxide/+git/chromium/tree/content/public/common/media_stream_request.cc#n29 but : 1. the code is #ifdef'd to Android which get its info from https://git.launchpad.net/~oxide- developers/oxide/+git/chromium/tree/media/capture/video/android/java/src/org/chromium/media/VideoCaptureAndroid.java#n58 2. the spelling used (in the android case) is lower case "front", The result is that no matter what camera we are using we get an 'unspecified' as the camera position on the API side, ** Affects: oxide Importance: High Assignee: Alexandre Abreu (abreu-alexandre) Status: In Progress ** Changed in: oxide Assignee: (unassigned) => Alexandre Abreu (abreu-alexandre) ** Changed in: oxide Importance: Undecided => High ** Changed in: oxide Status: New => In Progress -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu WebApps bug tracking, which is subscribed to Oxide. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1568145 Title: Oxide doesn't properly report the front/back position for enumerated video devices Status in Oxide: In Progress Bug description: In Oxide's video device enumeration code using libhybris, http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~oxide- developers/oxide/oxide.trunk/view/head:/shared/browser/media/oxide_video_capture_device_factory_linux.cc#L46 the device facing position is "encoded" as a string and passed down to the content layer when creating the VCD name: http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~oxide- developers/oxide/oxide.trunk/view/head:/shared/browser/media/oxide_video_capture_device_factory_linux.cc#L82 This name is then used when creating the MEdiaStreamDevice that serves as a backend for the capture device https://git.launchpad.net/~oxide- developers/oxide/+git/chromium/tree/content/browser/renderer_host/media/video_capture_manager.cc#n842 This then creates a MEdiaStreamDevice based on that positional name https://git.launchpad.net/~oxide- developers/oxide/+git/chromium/tree/content/public/common/media_stream_request.cc#n29 but : 1. the code is #ifdef'd to Android which get its info from https://git.launchpad.net/~oxide- developers/oxide/+git/chromium/tree/media/capture/video/android/java/src/org/chromium/media/VideoCaptureAndroid.java#n58 2. the spelling used (in the android case) is lower case "front", The result is that no matter what camera we are using we get an 'unspecified' as the camera position on the API side, To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/oxide/+bug/1568145/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-webapps-bugs Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-webapps-bugs More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
